Snyk has created this PR to fix 6 vulnerabilities in the yarn dependencies of this project.

Snyk changed the following file(s):

  • plugins/graphiql/package.json

Note for zero-installs users

If you are using the Yarn feature zero-installs that was introduced in Yarn V2, note that this PR does not update the .yarn/cache/ directory meaning this code cannot be pulled and immediately developed on as one would expect for a zero-install project - you will need to run yarn to update the contents of the ./yarn/cache directory.
If you are not using zero-install you can ignore this as your flow should likely be unchanged.

⚠️ Warning
Failed to update the yarn.lock, please update manually before merging.

Vulnerabilities that will be fixed with an upgrade:

Walkthrough

This pull request updates the dependency management strategy for the GraphiQL plugin by transitioning from workspace protocol references to fixed version numbers for Backstage packages. Specifically, it replaces the flexible workspace protocol (workspace:^) with concrete version specifications: @backstage/core-components is pinned to version 0.1.0 and @backstage/theme to version 0.1.1. This change establishes explicit version constraints and likely prepares the plugin for independent publishing or distribution outside the monorepo workspace environment.

Changes

File(s) Summary
plugins/graphiql/package.json Updated dependency specifications from workspace protocol (workspace:^) to fixed versions: @backstage/core-components to 0.1.0 and @backstage/theme to 0.1.1.

Code Review

This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, aims to fix several security vulnerabilities by updating dependencies. However, the proposed changes are incorrect for this monorepo setup. It replaces workspace:^ dependencies with pinned, outdated versions of @backstage/core-components and @backstage/theme. This will likely break the application and goes against the project's dependency management strategy. The PR also notes that it failed to update yarn.lock, which is another critical issue. These changes should be rejected. The dependencies should be updated correctly within the workspace, for example by running an upgrade command that respects the monorepo structure.

These changes incorrectly replace workspace-local dependencies (workspace:^) with fixed, outdated versions from a public registry.

  • @backstage/core-components is pinned to 0.1.0, but the version in this monorepo appears to be 0.13.4-next.0.
  • @backstage/theme is pinned to 0.1.1, but the version in this monorepo appears to be 0.4.1.

This will almost certainly break the build or cause runtime errors due to version mismatches and API incompatibilities. In a monorepo using the workspace: protocol, dependencies should resolve to the packages within the same workspace.

It seems the automated tool failed to resolve the dependencies correctly. These changes should be reverted. To fix the underlying vulnerabilities, you should try to update the dependencies across the entire workspace, which might involve updating @backstage/cli and running a workspace-wide upgrade.

    "@backstage/core-plugin-api": "workspace:^",
    "@backstage/theme": "workspace:^"
